The invention relates to a safety belt, in particular for personal protection, which can be put on and fastened to the human body and which has at least two belt parts which make it possible to put on and take off the safety belt and a fastening element for securely and releasably connecting the belt parts.

An increasing number of people are faced with an increasing danger potential from fires, in particular high-rise or tunnel fires or also storms, floods, avalanches or earthquake-related natural disasters of ever increasing magnitude. In addition, there is also an increasing need for security to provide protection, in particular against criminals who practice physical or sexual violence.

A number of safety belts for personal protection have become known for such purposes. These are safety belts for special tasks with special safety and security functions coordinated with them. These safety belts are only for a relatively short timely wear provided during the security operation. Wearing such safety belts over a longer period of time, for example for a whole day or for everyday work or activities, is not possible or is possible only with considerable restrictions.

Accordingly, it is an object of the invention to provide a safety belt which avoids the disadvantages known from the prior art.

This object is achieved by the features of claim 1, in particular in that the safety belt has at least one fastening device for various safety or security elements, which is firmly connected to at least one of the belt parts, the dimensions of the safety belt comprising the fastening device and its weight is designed in such a way that it is possible to wear the safety belt even over long periods of time as well as during everyday activities with good wearing comfort and great freedom of movement.

This makes it possible for the first time to create a multifunctional safety belt that can be worn for long periods of time in everyday business or private activities and that meets the requirements for both comfort and freedom of movement for the person wearing the safety belt.

The fastening device is advantageously fixed with at least one, preferably having a free end Connected rope, which is designed in terms of its cross section and its material properties such that in particular a manual unwinding or unwinding of the rope is made possible. With the help of this rope, the person wearing the belt can help himself in emergencies, for example

Roping down house fires or dangerous situations, where the rope can be unrolled or stretched out in a simple manner due to its flexibility or elasticity, and can also be simply rolled up or put in loops again after a safety operation and then space-savingly on the safety belt can be attached.

Two ropes are expediently provided. This allows particularly favorable stability conditions with the

Rappel down and get easy handling. Otherwise, the safety reserves can be significantly increased or even more favorable handling conditions can be achieved by reducing the cable cross-sections.

Expediently, when the safety belt is in place, each rope is assigned lateral force transmission points which form under load and which are at a distance from one another which enables a stable position of the human body.

It goes without saying that the cross-section of the rope and its material properties are designed such that it certainly bears at least the weight of a human body, ie the wearer of the safety belt, without tearing. Advantageously, the fastening device is firmly connected to at least one brake element that can be coupled to the rope and is preferably designed with a towing coupling for braking the rope or the body that is subjected to tension under load. This enables controlled and measured braking when abseiling.

This can be further favored if the braking element is provided with a braking force transmission means for transmitting the braking force to the rope, which is provided with an adjusting means for variably adjusting the level of the braking force, the adjusting means preferably being manual, in particular with the aid of a rotary encoder is adjustable.

It is particularly advantageous if the adjustment means is coupled to a mechanism which enables the height of the braking force to be adjusted as a function of specific body positions and / or the rope load. In this way, advantageous manual or even automatic control of the braking force can be achieved, which further increases the safety when rappelling.

Furthermore, it is advantageous if the fastening device is fixed with a rope pulley for rolling up or unrolling the

Rope is connected, which preferably has a restoring element supporting the winding of the rope, in particular a torsion spring. In this way, particularly favorable space conditions can be achieved while maintaining a high degree of freedom of movement as well as favorable manual handling when the rope is being rolled up or unrolled. It is particularly advantageous if the axis of rotation of the rope pulley is perpendicular to Fastening element or to the longitudinal axis of the body or trunk of the belt wearer is arranged. This allows favorable installation conditions in connection with a particularly flat construction of the fastening device to be achieved, so that the belt carrier is not or only insignificantly restricted in its freedom of movement.

The safety belt is expediently firmly connected to a fastening element for fastening a force transmission element, such as a rope, chain or rod, and is preferably fastened in such a way that the fastening element is arranged in a region of the safety belt in the closed state of the safety belt or several force application point or force application points of the cable or cables which forms under load. If, for example, the fastening element is designed as an eyelet, the safety belt can also be used as a holding device or for securely fastening objects.

It is particularly advantageous if the fastening device is firmly connected to a signal transmitter that is controlled manually and / or at least one sensor, preferably emits optical, acoustic, electrical and / or electromagnetic alarm signals. As a result, the belt wearer can advantageously draw attention to himself in emergency situations or can achieve a warning effect by manually actuating the signal generator, which can prevent potential offenders from committing an offense and evacuate them. Because in such emergency situations it can also happen that the wearer of the safety belt loses consciousness or for other reasons is no longer able to actuate the signal transmitter manually, one or more suitable alarm signals can advantageously be sent out by means of the automatic sensor control of the signal transmitter. For this purpose, the sensor can expediently be designed as a sensor for detecting ambient conditions, such as temperature, air humidity, air composition, smoke content and / or the like. Advantageously, several such sensors or multifunctional sensors can be used, so that with the help of the safety belt, a suitable alarm signal is automatically sent in many emergency situations depending on the respective environmental conditions such as excessive heat or cold, when in the water and / or when smoke or harmful gases are formed can. This advantageously enables the belt wearer, who is in an emergency situation, to be located quickly, the alarm signals advantageously being designed in such a way that they can be targeted via radio direction finding or the like.

It is particularly advantageous if the fastening device is firmly connected to an electrical alarm system and an independent power source for supplying the alarm system with electrical current, the alarm system advantageously being designed with a transmitter and / or a receiver. This enables the belt wearer, which has come into an emergency, to be located particularly cheaply and quickly. Location with even greater precision can be achieved if the alarm system is designed in such a way that it enables satellite-based location of the safety belt, the alarm system preferably being designed as a GPS system. In the same way Like the signal transmitters 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, the alarm system 40 can also be sensor-controlled or operated manually, here using the actuation button 68.

Furthermore, it is expedient if the fastening device is detachably or captively connected to a manually operable safety auxiliary element for breaking glass panes. As a result, escape routes can be created in a favorable manner by destroying glazings, for example windows and door panes. This enables a quick escape for those affected.

The safety belt can expediently have a holding device for holding a safety blanket which is preferably formed with aluminum. For this purpose, safety ceilings coated with aluminum are suitable, for example, which enable advantageous heat protection and / or protection against hypothermia.

It is also expedient if the security belt has a security engraving for personal identification that is not visible in the attached state. As a result, the personal data are advantageously protected against unauthorized third parties, but are available to authorized persons in an emergency for quick identification of the person concerned.

It is particularly advantageous if the fastening device has a device for the wireless transmission of speech, in particular a radio telephone. As a result, the wearer of the safety belt and possibly also auxiliary persons have the option of both requesting help quickly and also providing detailed information about the person concerned Person to make the type of emergency, whereabouts and the like. This enables an even more efficient aid deployment.

The device for wireless transmission of speech expediently comprises a hands-free device which enables speech transmission, preferably via a voice control. This enables particularly simple communication, while the belt wearer can advantageously use the hands for other purposes.

It is also expedient if the hands-free device is designed to be electrically connectable to the fastening device and for this purpose has a contact plug which is designed to match an electrical mating contact plug of the fastening device. As a result, the hands-free device can be carried along optionally and, if necessary, can be used elsewhere, for example in a motor vehicle.

As an alternative to and / or in combination with the voice control, the device for the wireless transmission of speech can be actuated with the aid of a keyboard preferably arranged on the fastening device or a cover part connected to it, a numerical keyboard being preferred.

It is also expedient if the fastening device has a preferably separate compartment for the hands-free device detachably connected to it. This enables easy insertion or removal of the free Intercom and cheap protection against environmental influences such as moisture or liquids.

It is particularly advantageous if the securing or security elements, in particular the rope, the sensor, the signal transmitter, the alarm system, the power source and / or the security engraving, are attached to the fastening device in such a way that they cannot be removed without being destroyed. This provides additional protection against unauthorized removal of such security or security elements.

Advantageously, the fastening device or a cover part firmly connected to it are designed such that when the safety belt is in place they cover the fastening element in such a way that unauthorized third parties cannot open the safety belt without destroying the carrier device or the cover part. This makes it possible to create additional protection options that do not open or remove the safety belt by unauthorized third parties, or only make it more difficult.

For this purpose, the fastening device or the cover part are expediently coupled to the fastening element by a security mechanism which can be actuated by means of an adjustable security code in such a way that the security belt can only be opened with the aid of the preset security code. As a result, the above protection options can be achieved in a favorable manner, while the wearer of the safety belt can simply open it by entering the correct security code. NEN and taking off the safety belt is possible in particular without the use of additional tools, such as keys or the like. This can be achieved, for example, in that the security code can be entered with the aid of a keyboard which is accessible from the outside when the belt is in place and is preferably arranged on the fastening device or the cover part.

The security or security elements, in particular the rope, the sensor, the signal transmitter, the alarm system, the device for wireless transmission of speech and / or the keyboard are expediently arranged to be protected or sealed against liquids, so that they also function properly under the influence of liquids, such as rain or splashing water or when swimming in water.

The fastening device is expediently designed like a plate or box. This enables a favorable arrangement and fastening of the safety or securing elements with a favorable weight and advantageous, compact dimensions.

The safety belt is advantageously designed as a hip belt. This enables simple normal donning and use, in particular as a trouser belt. This makes it more convenient to wear and offers favorable arrangement options for the fastening device with the safety or security elements, so that no or only an insignificant impairment of the freedom of movement of the belt wearer occurs. In this case, the fastening device and the safety means or securing means firmly connected to it are advantageously arranged ventrally or abdominally in the applied state of the safety belt. This enables particularly advantageous wearing comfort with a favorable arrangement and operability of the safety or security means. This arrangement also allows maximum freedom of movement for the belt wearer, particularly in everyday activities.

It is particularly advantageous if the fastening device and the safety or securing means firmly attached to it form a common unit in the attached state of the safety belt. As a result, all safety and security means can be arranged and operated particularly advantageously. Due to the formation of a common unit, a weight-optimized design with favorable movement conditions for the belt wearer is achieved. This also enables a protected and safe arrangement of the safety or securing elements with a particularly favorable design of the safety belt.

The above measures, both individually and in combination with each other, contribute to the fulfillment of the requirements, which meet an increased security need, by means of multifunctional security functions and enable a favorable wearing comfort and an almost unrestricted freedom of movement even when worn over a longer period of time, in particular in many activities of everyday life, be it in the professional or private sphere.
